"There's a sensual pleasure involved in making harmonious sounds, that I just can't get, and I don't think anyone can quite get, from acting." That's House's Hugh Laurie on making Didn't It Rain, a follow-up to his well-reviewed and million-selling debut of 2011, Let Them Talk. Once again Laurie performs classic blues songs with brioŚmusic he says he has loved since childhood. The 13 tracks include two Latin-flavored numbers: "St. Louis Blues" with Jean McClain and "Kiss of Fire" with Guatemalan singer Gaby Moreno. Taj Mahal sings on Little Brother Montgomery's "Vicksburg Blues," while McClain returns for "Send Me to the 'Lectric Chair" and Jelly Roll Morton's "I Hate a Man Like You." As they say in Britain, he's spot on.
